Hi guys a few more question i like to find out, if i just want to do grabfood and grabexpress using a car?

1.Can you make a profit if you are doing this with a car? About how much were you making b4 covid19?
2.Unlike motorcycle where you can park anywhere, with car you have to park at legal places like multistory car park which will cost you money. I am guessing this money will have to be from your own pocket??
3. Will you get downvoted with zero stars by customers till grab have to sack you bcs unlike a motorcycle which can reach from point A to B in 10 minutes a car might take 30-40 minutes or more.

can ask bank for the original grant. bank never keep my grant tho. because they sked they will lose it.
they have scanner there. can scan directly from phone screen.

For my car they just gave me a photocopy grant.

earning a bit lesser now compare to beginning of MCO time, GF job priority is given to GF rider.

Parking fee can claim from grab. With more and more cars on the road, parking on commercial area can be hard to find.
*
So if you have a car you will make more doing grab then grab food and express?
Also do you happen to know my car I modified the tyre to wider tyre then the original. Would puspakom pass it if I want to do ehailing??

very low....last time i did touch wood never kena before, but chances of picking up troublemakers are very high getting you into trouble and banned
just need to keep your cool je, pretend you are a mute smile bk at them then point your waze to show u are sending them to that location  wink.gif

Ya my fear is about this troublemaker. How's the salary like if you choose to just to the grab delivery with your car? Don't want to pick up passengers just strictly do deliveries with car, Possible?

that i dunno le....back in those days easily 4-6k la for full timers (not cool story ya, driver group actually shared) , but heard that once PSV is enforce is much easier to do liao (this a grab driver shared to me last 2 months but did not reveal the income) probably a stable income of 6k on average?
but those are fetching passengers only

cc: sifu yhtan boleh confirm tak?  sorry i long time gantung kunci d since sudah boleh end game sama Grab  laugh.gif

Ya I guess picking up passengers is where the money is at. But I fear the customer will give trouble and headache.

u mean grab food car or grab express? It is achievable but a bit tougher

Yes mostly grab express using car. If can make 3-4k a month it's ok, less stressful from picking up passengers.

i think it is easier to get grabfood job compared to grab express, youre better off doing jnt, lalamove etc if only interested to do delivery, no yearly puspakom inspection like grab if im not mistaken
*
If do grabfood with car I think sure will get down voted till get sack, bcs using car is a lot slower to get the food + hand over to customer.
Do jnt and lazada hire people with own car or you have to drive their van + you be under contract and can't choose your own time when you want to work?

that one need GDL license

QUOTE(Strike Eureka @ Aug 10 2022, 04:20 PM)
i think no need la boss....D license can d for private cars, i do receive deliveries of my frozen meat and dimsum from ppl driving cars also during mco
for Van most likely you'll need GDL la and puspakom check,  but i think that's for registered vehicles .
i got a fren doing lalamove using Van, but he got his own business doing part time transporting big items, GDL and puspakom memang ada d

What type of license(s) do I need to have to be a Lalamove delivery partner?
For motorcycles, cars and 4x4, the minimum requirement is the P driving license. For vans and lorries, you need to have a GDL license on top of your driving license. We won’t accept drivers with an L license or an expired license.

1 last question guy, wta if let's say customer try to rob your car with knife do your have to try to fight it off or just let them take the car?
Will grab pay for your car if a customer rob your car???

Hi Fellow Driver, sorry for asking something regarding Grab Rider here.

I registered as a Grabfood Rider 2 weeks ago through Grab official website without knowing we can actually register with the help of an Alpha Driver.. Why Grab doesn't actually properly promote this on the website? doh.gif

My application was currently pending at:
Document submission [pass]
Training [pass]
Application under review. Wait for SMS/Whatsapp to activate [pending]
Account activation [pending]

Does it usually take that long to register? Did I done something wrong? Or maybe because there is already too much of Rider available, so no open slot for new applicant at the moment? I'm from Wangsa Maju. Am I still allowed to transfer my application to an Alpha Driver?

I read through some of the post mention about document verification at kiosk at GDC, should I go and do that?

Thank you, any advice is much appreciate.

Did you get approved?? How long it took at the end??

QUOTE(razornick22 @ Mar 11 2025, 04:36 PM)
Hi Guys, new here.

Would like to know what to prepare to become a grab driver.
Is it better to apply thru grab or get PSV from driving institute?
*
Did you complete everything already? How was the process?

Hi Rara, ya, I finally got activated by around mid of March, I was registered through the apps by beginning of February.

I guess it got delay because it has quite a few of holidays around that period, and also the coming Ramadan. I'm a happy rider so far. smile.gif

Nice. Enjoy bro.
